    Its a old school, Torquer 289 Edlebrock Highrise. No spacer, gaskets are good, very small leak at throttle body rod. 650, 4 bbl Autolite carburetor with mechanical choke. Thanks for your input!

    shall I assume that you had the same issue with both points and with electronic ignition?
    I'm confused about the EFI fue lines you have with a carb setup?
     

    Yes, I'm using intermediately EFI fuel lines from tank to carb instead of regular rubber lines on carb system, due to ethanol erosion. Yes I tried electronic ignition, but makes no difference. Also considering check valve ball in carb?

    Have you always had this problem or did it develop recently or slowly over time?  You said that you had the car for years.
    also its a bit strange that you have an aftermarket intake with a stock autolite 4bb carb.  Have you ever tried a different carb?
